Deposit on a Drahthaar
Time for a new birddog with the passing of my lab. He was a good retriever, but too hot to be much fun as a family dog. He never really did settle down. The new dog will be a Verein Deutsch Drahthaar. She should be here in about six weeks. I hope she compliments my GSP for ptarmigan and should be useful for fox hunting and ducks as well.

You won't disappointed with the Drahthaar. They are super hunting/ family dogs. My old Dog loves the kids, but when I am gone for an evening my wife brings him inside. If someone strange came inside without me there I would almost feel sorry for them (I said ALMOST). But if I approve of them then he will not even look at them twice. Good Luck with him. Are you on the VDD messages? you can get some good info.

versdog,
Just curious, have you seen Adolf or other dogs from this litter work? You seem pretty educated, and this will be my first attempt with this breed so I could probably use some pointers.

I have not seen any of the dogs from this litterl, sorry. I have had Drahthaars over 12 years and researched them for about 3 years before that. I have had the privlage to meet many of the breeders in the group in my travels. I was also lucky to have a stud dog that was bred several times. The great thing about this group is you can gain alot of knowledge from most everyone in the group. Drop me private email.
